Given differential equation is $\displaystyle \dfrac{dx}{dy} = -\left(\dfrac{x}{\mathrm{y}}\right)^2 + \dfrac{x}{\mathrm{y}} - 1$
Put $\displaystyle x = v\mathrm{y} \Rightarrow \dfrac{dx}{dy} = v + \mathrm{y}\dfrac{dv}{dy}$
The given differential equation becomes $\displaystyle \mathrm{y}\dfrac{dv}{dy} = -1 - v^2$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \dfrac{dv}{1+v^2} = -\dfrac{dy}{\mathrm{y}}$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \int \dfrac{dv}{1+v^2} = -\int \dfrac{dy}{\mathrm{y}}$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \tan^{-1}v = -\log|\mathrm{y}| + C$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \tan^{-1}\dfrac{x}{\mathrm{y}} = -\log|\mathrm{y}| + C$
Given differential equation is $\displaystyle \dfrac{dy}{\mathrm{y}} = \tan x\,dx$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \int \dfrac{dy}{\mathrm{y}} = \int \tan x\,dx$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \log|\mathrm{y}| = \log|\sec x| + \log C,$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \log\left|\dfrac{\mathrm{y}}{\sec x}\right| = \log C$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \dfrac{\mathrm{y}}{\sec x} = C$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow \mathrm{y} = C\sec x$
When $\displaystyle x = 0, \mathrm{y} = 2 \Rightarrow C = 2$
Hence, the required particular solution is $\displaystyle \mathrm{y} = 2\sec x$
